Halloween Tag

This tag was made with little CTMH tags and some torn paper.  I used the cuttlebug folder for the web and some Tim Holtz distress ink for coloring

TIM HOLTZ ALCOHOL INK APPLICATOR REPLACEMENT FELT from Ranger
With Tim Holtz Alcohol Ink and the blending tool it is exciting to see what colors you are going to come up with.  I love making my own background paper.  Since I do not get out much.  I have my autistic son that keeps me close to home so making my own paper is perfect. I just take a felt pad,  place 3 drops of different colored ink on the pad and pat my paper.  Every one is so different.  I will post some others I have made in my next post. 

Last year, My August swap

This little book was fun to show off some of my favorite recipes from my Aunt Gene.  She has been gone for 25 years but I never had better meat loaf than hers. 

Father's Day Card

This is one week of blogging, I am still really trying to learn how to do it, but I am still able to post as I go. This card was made around this time of year for Father's Day.  My inspiration was a big piece of Bark that fell at my feet from our Palm tree.  I thought it was so beautiful, I took it inside and sewed it to a card.  I sewed all along the edges with my $40 sewing machine.  This little Janome, Sew mini, has 4 stitches and I used them all on this cardstock. I stamped on the piece of Copper with the StazOn and embossed the design for the 3-D look.  Then after I had the card the way I wanted it, I took some Distress Ink and went over all the edges.  Gave it the manly look.  Thanks for looking.
